Ask HN: How to disable Google Chrome's auto-update feature on macOS?

Hi,

A little while ago (I think with version 55.0.2883) I was playing around with a couple of settings and out of curiosity I activated the auto-update feature (chrome://settings/help). Since then Chrome has updated itself to the latest version (currently running version 60.0.3112.101).

Chrome doesn't provide a "deactivate" button and the tips I found online do not seem to work (for example: http://www.wikihow.com/Completely-Disable-Google-Chrome-Update#Mac_sub).

I was thinking about a complete reinstall it but there has to be a better way!

Does anyone have any idea how to disable/turn off the auto-update feature?

Thanks in advance!
